The eyrls

Traums dmping

Not long after as thou it never happened most people moved on with their life, quickly forgetting people they shared explicit memories with

but so was life, move on or dont(i'm sure most people reading this have experienced it once in their life),

But so was not to be said for henry for he was dead on , on finding his father

. his mind still persistent that his father was not yet dead

Staying with madam agatha as she was fondly called, taking the name of a lady in the bible, due to her monificient attitude

madam agatha, had suggested he enrolled in the village academy, as most of his peer's had already done,

but of course he frowned at the thought, going to school would mean accepting

assistance from the *nice* king, and he didn't need it

. To hell with the king. Being a nine year old boy, his opinion's didn't matter, neither was his intelligience level high

He could count all the times he told madam agatha about what he thought about the king but most times she smiled or scoffed and at times she would frown and ignore him

But she never did scold him, this lady , he has known her since his eyes adjusted to the new world, but he never did understand her

never understood why she never hated him or got tired of him, i mean his real mom did

Making up his mind , not to upset a nice lady, he decided to give the school a try, with the sole aim of excelling in his studies and finding as much as he could concerning his father's case

He finally met up with her and told her of his decision , looking up at him with a smile ,she ruffled his hair and praised his decision

feeling a bit elevated at her praise, he decided to give it try

with a bit of enthusiasm and anxiety, he went to to enroll in the village academy

passing the huge group of children and some adults, he made his way to akim,

the M. D, a dark man,with a bit of a bloated belly, a golden tooth and two different coloration of eyes

which gave him the nickname i natryshem.

making his way up to mr akim, he brought out a piece of cloth tied against something

looking at the cloth, akim picked it up with a stick, and poked it a few times, looking at mister akim annoyed he spoke out, it wont bite you just open it, chuckling at the boy's words and annoyance, he finally opened it

Looking at the pile of money , wrapped around the cloth, he grinned and hissed through his gold tooth, with a whistle he looked up at henry, where did you get this money, kid

It was madam agatha, henry found himself replying

still skeptical, he looked at henry, you know what. we do to thieves, we chop their hands off

Determined to prove he's innocence

henry raised his voice in his defense, straining his voice, oblivious of the turned eyes facing him

With an annoyed grunt,akim hissed and ordered henry kept quiet that very second, looking at the shriveled skinny boy, akim hissed once again

making his words audible to henry alone, he spoke, while getting the neccesities

Why would she give you all this money, a lowly sea urchin like you..

Even if it was out of pity, tch that woman doesn't know what's good for her

you do know you're stressing that poor lady, with all your damn needs, dont you think she has requirements of her own

or do you think she bargained of taking care of a useless brat like yourself, cant even make yourself useful

laughing to himself , he said, guess your mother knew before hand, probably why she left

With he's gaze fixed to the floor ,his fingers trembling slightly as he bit he's lips, pain flowed through ever drop of tear that passed through his eyes, henry wrinkled his nose and held himself back

with a scrowl, akim handed over to him the goods,

collecting them, henry turned around and walked down the street, wiping his tears as he walked. Akim looking at the boy ,did nothing but hiss clearly no sign of guilt was forth coming

Walking down the road, with his eyes fixed to his feet and little drop's of tears occasionally falling through as he thought,

Was he really bothering madam agatha, a lady of a never ending smile, was that the actual reason his mother left , did she not want to be burdened by him

On reaching madam agatha's shed, he met her attending to a customer, her face brightened and full of smiles, as always

in fact she never frowned, the only time he has seen her so much as squinch a nose, was when he talked about the king

Maybe he really was a burden, with his gaze still fixed on the floor, he made some inaudible words of thanks, and walked past madam agatha and her customer, dropping the items on the table

sensing his change of mood,madam agatha quickly called him back , and quickly addressed the issue with her customer

As the customer left, madam agatha gestured for henry to sit beside her, grudgingly walking towards her he made to sit by her left

Turning to the boy beside her and smiling , she ruffled his hair and asked him what was the matter, feeling slightly embarrased by the touch,

henry , looking at her, henry replied nothing

still sensing something was wrong she urged him until, tiny droplets of tears escaped the boundage of his eye sockets as he narrated everything which transpired between him and akim

When he was done, he asked her nothing but a question , am i a trouble to you , ?

with a smile ,madam agatha looked at him and gently pulled him in for an embrace

, being the first time henry had experienced anything close to mother love , he shed more tears, probably the first time, he allowed himself to be vunerable after his father's disaperance

madam agatha , being aware of this did nothing to disturb him, just letting him , let it all out

After allowing him to cry for an hour of two, henry soon fell asleep, carrying him in her arms, she lay him to sleep .

Walking around the verender, her gaze fell on the table, her eyes quickly taking notice of the items, henry purchased, with her fingers gently skimming through the goods

She decided it was about time, she went to the market

cleaning up her attaire, she quickly hung her bag around her shoulders and left, her destination, akim's shed, but first to take care of some matters

Reaching the market, which proved not to be a problem, due to some high end gear, but this type of gear wasn't usually seen, given that their kingdom was

E-listed

They were different grades of kingdom, each one with they're different chief's, all controlled by the altimate imperium of justice, The first king, but all still benefiting from THE eyrl

quickly picking up her bag, she made her way to the east side of the market

on reaching an old woman's shed, she cheerfully greeted the lady and was welcomed in

she and the old lady talked for a while before she was handed some documents and files

taking the files, she quickly tugged them in her bags, thanked the old lady and left

As she came out of the woman's shed, her burrows furrowed as she changed her direction , heading to the west side of the market

in a stern manner, she made her way through marketers and traders, gently shifting anyone who jammed her path

then making her way to akim's shed,

akim on seeing her grinned and called out to her, but agatha held a palm up indicating him to be quiet, no pleasantries,

with her lips tightned and her eyes dim, akim couldn't help but wonder what had gone wrong, why the always jovial, miss agatha was upset

Truth be told, that was the first time he had ever seen her upset, much more at him

making her way towards him with her anger barely contained , she confronted him

what did you say to the boy i sent up here

akim laughing , not thinking she was serious, brushed her off, but after seeing madam agatha's unwavering seriousness, he complied

i just told him the truth, what truth, madam asked him her tone getting more leathel

with a gulp, akim answered, just told him he was annoying

huh, clearly skeptical, her mood changing, that boy came up to me crying, a boy who just lost his father, what kind of monster are you huh akim

as akim made to speak , she hushed him, i wouldn't like to make a scene here. but you messed up when you hurt the boy

walking closer to him, she pulled some documents out of her bag and handed to akim.

As he read the files, his face fell,

resignation letter

please madam , please i'm sorry for the boy , i'll even apologize to him personally,

falling to his knees, he continued to plead , causing quite a scene but all his pleas fell on deaf ears.

with a scoff , she picked up her bags, and as shd made to leave, she told akim to pack and leave in a week's time

oh , and do not make my son cry, ever again in your wretched life
